SkipTool Support thread

[pastro]

I just added 2 transcodes to the queue, ran runqueue and both mencoder processes have started running at the same time.

Sorry missed your message. I'll look into that tonight. I changed something just before I released it to minimize the window. I might have messed up and caused it to not wait on the process complete anymore.

Edit:
Just looked at it. There is an issue. I'll sort it out when I get home.

Got a minute to look at it..
Here is the fixed version that will only run one at a time like it was intended to do.

Unzip this file to the "third party" dir.
I'll fix the install as well.

Edit: Install fixed.

Super set of tools Skiptool and BurndvdX2.

Sorry I accidentally posted the same in the developers forum where it does not belong.

I have one issue: every keypress I make moving forward or backwards trough a video file ups the memory use by about 10 KB. After processing 3 or 4 files PVRX2 runs out of memory and skiptool simply exits. Restarting PVRX2 is the only way to get back to normal.

I'll look into it. I've always been a little worried how bitmaps are disposed of. Maybe there is an issue in that.

I ran skiptool for a while scrolling back and forth. The memory usage kept increasing until it got pretty high and then it dropped way down. The commit charge was still very high. Not sure if it is a memory leak or just the way .net releases memory. I know sub has had some luck releasing memory so maybe he has a trick that can help.

Please post your logs from the crash also.

I reproduced the crash. Th memory usage went up to 1.2 GB, then doen to 0.8 and back up to 1.2 GB. The Skiptool crashed and I think the whole interface of PVRX2 also crashed because memory usage dropped to about 40 kBand after a few seconds it was back to about 80 kB and the PVRX2 interface was there again.

The logs show a few out of memory errors.

The updates queueit.exe crashes after launching the first transcode. Not sure that this was how you planned to stop multiple encodings from running at the same time but it helps :-)

(it is so quick i cannot see the error)

Yeah that was my plan.. haha

No I tried it with notepad and it brought one up and then the other once I close the first.
I'll check it with a couple of simple transcodes.
EDIT: Yeah there is a problem as you said. I wait for inputidle and that works fine for a graphics windows but not for a cmd prompt.
Crap.. I'll have a fix up shortly.

I've noticed that I am running skiptool 1.0.0.5 instead of .6. I'll try with .6 once my recordings finish. I've played around but the window just disappears too fast.
